Longchaoshou (Chunxi Road Flagship Store)

Long Chao Shou is a famous delicacy in Chongqing and Chengdu, Sichuan. Although the name of this restaurant is Chao Shou, they sell everything, and the most famous dish is Chao Shou. I recommend the one with meat filling and a lot of chili, which is very satisfying.

[Taste] The wontons were delicious, with thin wrappers and generous fillings. The meat filling was generous and had a good texture. [Environment] Clean, bright, and well-organized. [Service] The food was served very quickly, and the staff were friendly and welcoming.

Chao Shou is a type of wonton. Wrap meat in dough, cook it, add clear soup, red oil and other seasonings and it is ready to eat. This snack is tender and delicious, and the soup is slightly spicy and fragrant. (It is somewhat different from dumplings, mainly because the wrapping method of Chao Shou is different from that of dumplings. Dumplings are wrapped in round dough while Chao Shou is wrapped in square dough. In addition, there are great differences in the thickness of the wrapper, the amount of filling, whether it is served with soup, the wrapping method, the appearance of the finished product, the cooking method, etc. This is also the characteristic of Chao Shou)

The taste is really good. The environment on the first floor is too bad and it is noisy. The seats are hard to come by. The second floor is ok. There is someone to serve you. It is a bit expensive. We ate on the second floor and could only order set meals. The price is per person. The portions are small and there are many varieties. It is better to go to the first floor during non-meal time.

Tonight, I went to Chunxi Road for dinner and, as a local, went to Long Shao Shou for dinner. The storefront is quite impressive, and the interior is also spacious, with 20 to 30 tables. I ordered two set meals, each priced at 49 yuan, or you can order one item a la carte. The wontons have a variety of flavors, and I think the mushroom soup and dried chili wontons are better. The red oil wontons and dandan noodles are just average. It's been a while since I've had Sanhe Ni, and it was delicious, bringing back memories of my childhood.
